like i said BRIGGS, i like the trade if u can get the #5 pick...i was just questioning your logic here since you've criticized people for proposing trades that add on salary in the past...i know i've had deals where Ratliff & Ruben were coming back & you said both those guys were retreads & not even worthy of consideration.

if they are coming back withdarius miles and pick 5 thats a whole different ball of wax--i wouldnt be interested in a package of ratliff and patterson alone for any ending contract

For the 3rd time, THIS TRADE DOES NOT WORK!!!

The salaries do not match by about 5-6 million.

If it worked, I have a problem with paying 11 million for 3 years of a player who is right now a health risk. I don't think it makes sense, and it will not make us better if he is not playing. He has been injured many times in his career including right now.

I don't have a problem with RP or DM, and obviously the #5 pick is great, but if Green wont be available there, i'd try to make a trade with a different team, and not pay take on 11 mill for an injured, aging role player.

But this is a fantasy because it doesn't add up.

On 2nd thought, replace KT with JYD. We need KT to get another mid-level 1st rounder. Maybe to Houston?

Im getting darius Miles who is 23 and I think is ready to breakout to all-star level type play, the 5th pick in the draft, 2 years of 29 years old Ruben Patterson and Ratliff who is a shot blocker. yes Im taking on veteran DEFENSIVE players who we need desperatley if the price is right, but im ADDINg pick 5 and Miles. I mean we could have a line up of

C Splitter 7-0 240
PF Taylor 6-9 255
SF Miles 6-9 210
SG Green 6-8 210
PG Marbury 6-2 200
And you want a better defensive team with that starting line-up??
